- π― Daniel Jones is a top waiver add, showing strong performance with his legs and improved coaching under Shane Steichen, making him a potential top-10 QB for the rest of the season.
- π‘ Jake Browning and Aaron Rodgers are also recommended as QB pickups, with Rodgers facing a Patriots defense that has struggled against opposing quarterbacks.
- π§ The decision between Caleb Williams and Daniel Jones for the rest of the season leans towards Caleb Williams for this week, but Jones is seen as a safer long-term roster option due to concerns about Williams potentially being benched.
Running Back Waiver Wire Options
- πββοΈ Chris Rodriguez and Woody Marks are highlighted as top RB pickups, though the overall quality of available options is noted as being low.
- π€ Jeremy McNichols is preferred over Rodriguez due to his pass-protection abilities, which are expected to earn him more snaps in Austin Ekeler's absence.
- π Rachaad White is mentioned as a potential flex option if he can secure double-digit touches, despite a limited role in Week 1.
Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Targets
- π Wan'Dale Robinson and Cedric Tillman are considered the top waiver wire wide receiver options, with the advice to not spend too much FAAB on them.
- π Romeo Doubs is recommended as a short-term fix due to Christian Watson's injury, offering a safe floor in Green Bay's passing game.
- π Dantavion Wixs is presented as a higher-upside alternative to Doubs, with increased playing time and targets after Jaden Reed's injury, and a role involving motion creating easier catch opportunities.
Tight End and Defense/Special Teams (DST) Pickups
- π Juwan Johnson, Harold Fannon, and Jatavon Sanders are the top tight end recommendations for the waiver wire.
- π Players like Hunter Henry, Evan Engram, and Dalton Kincaid might be droppable if you need to pick up a tight end.
- π‘οΈ For DST, the Kansas City Chiefs are a top stream against the Giants, with other options including the Falcons, Seahawks, Buccaneers, and Colts.
Kicker Recommendations
- π° Spencer Strider, Chris Boswell, John Parker Romo, and Joey Slye are recommended kickers to target on the waiver wire.
- π Slye is noted for consistently high fantasy point totals, and the Titans offense, while moving the ball, struggles to score touchdowns, which can benefit opposing kickers.
